Sore eyes

2012-01-30T14:59:00.001+11:00

Mus be the season for it - this morning I saw Zoe, a half grown girl with very sore eyes. She's had red and watery eyes on and off since she came home from the cat shelter at 8 weeks of age. Mostly she's a happy little cat, but today she was very miserable. She and sneezed a glob of snot right at her nurse! One eye was almost closed with swollen conjunctiva and the other was very mucusy. Poor

Living with cat allergies AND cats

2011-12-29T15:36:00.000+11:00

Do you suffer wheezing, sneezing, watery eyes and itchy eyes and arms around your cat? For me, these allergy symptoms are a small price to pay for the company of my cats – although some mornings when I wake with a heavy head and red eyes I wonder! Cat allergies are not caused by cat hair as most of us assume. They are caused by a protein found in cat saliva, urine and skin cells, or dander.

Snotty cats

2011-12-29T14:31:00.001+11:00

Snotty-nosed and snuffly cats are difficult to live with. Their owners put up with sneezes and snot all over the house, as well as snuffles and grumbles all day and half the night. The causes of sinusitis and rhinosinusitis are also difficult for vets to diagnose accurately and even more difficult to treat effectively. Inflammation and infection spread rapidly from cats’ throats to

Is an older cat for you?

2011-12-28T15:55:00.002+11:00

Just came across this great article on the advantages of adopting an older cat. Sometimes kittens aren't all they're cracked up to be... Cute or wise?

Paracetomol poison to cats

2011-12-16T11:55:00.000+11:00

Don't be tempted to medicate your off-colour cat with paracetamol this holiday season. Paracetamol at any dose is deadly to cats. Soon after ingesting it cats' red blood cells lose the ability to carry oxygen. The cats' gums turn brown, they drool and they become weak and wobbly. If they survive the first 12-24 hours the liver starts to close down, too. They go off their food, their face, lips

Tick paralysis

2011-11-25T13:27:00.001+11:00

Already this spring we have treated a cat back from the beach with tick paralysis. Reports from the coast say that the ticks are the worst seen in many years. Treat your cat for ticks before you leave for the coast. Frontline spray is the only safe tickicide for cats. Apply 2 days before leaving for the coast and then fortnightly while down there. Advantix and Permethrin are extremely toxic

Another reason to give up smoking

2011-11-23T13:14:00.001+11:00

Cats who live with smokers have a higher risk of developing cancer. The risk of lymphoma, the most common cancer in cats, is tripled in cats from smoking households. Squamous cell carcinomas of the mouth are also more prevalent in cats exposed to tobacco smoke. Scientists from all over the world have detected nicotine metabolites in the family pets of smokers. Carbon material, a

Kidney Failure

2011-11-16T12:17:00.001+11:00

Mittens getting the right balance What do kidneys do? The kidneys remove waste products from the blood stream, regulate fluid and electrolyte balance, maintain the acid-base balance of the body and remove toxins and drugs. They also help maintain blood pressure and stimulate blood cell production. What happens when my cats’ kidneys fail? Signs of kidney failure don’t appear

Cat fights

2011-11-16T09:47:00.001+11:00

Cats typically have a hate-hate relationship with any strange cat in their presence, yard, or environment. When new cats meet, they fluff up, spit, hiss - more like scream! - and the fur soon goes flying. While the brawl may only last a few seconds, that’s enough time for a few diseases to jump bodies. Feline leukemia (FeLV), feline immunodeficiency virus or cat AIDS (FIV), infectious

Dr Kate volunteers in Northern Territory community

2011-11-13T19:18:00.001+11:00

After the rains near the Alice in 2010 This isn't very catty news - but as animal lovers I know you will be excited to hear that Dr Kate is off to desex, deworm and treat camp dogs in Utopia's Indigenous communities near Alice Springs in March 2012. She is going as a volunteer with AMRRIC(Animal Management in Rural and Remote Indigenous Communities) in a team of Canberra veterinarians. She

Snake season

2011-11-10T10:45:00.000+11:00

Jonah reports that snakes are out and about again. He found one on Saturday night. His carers thought he wasn't himself on Sunday but when they came home on Monday and found him not able to stand they were sure he wasn't well. His breathing was a bit laboured and his eyes were huge. When we saw him he complained of his plight in a rather plaintive voice. His legs were very weak and he could

Lily poisoning

2011-11-09T13:37:00.003+11:00

All species of lilies are toxic to cats. Indoor cats with little choice in plant munching material are most at risk as they will try any cut flower that comes into the house. Any part of the plant - flowers, leaves or stems - is dangerous. Even lily pollen licked off the coat destroys cats’ kidney tubules. Lilies proven to poison cats include: Easter Lily (Lilium longiflorum), Tiger Lily

Easy worming

2011-11-09T11:05:00.002+11:00

Worming your cat has never been easier! Many of you have tried the new spot on wormer, Profender, and been thrilled at how easy it is to apply and how little notice your cats take of it. Anything to keep those sensitive felines happy!

Great cat enclosures

2011-11-02T11:27:00.002+11:00

Many of us keep our cats indoors these days - for their health and to protect the lizards and birds in our streets. Today we found this terrific web-site on cat enclosures. There must be a protoype here that my cats would like!

Kitty dementia

2011-10-26T15:08:00.001+11:00

Dementia, also known as feline cognitive dysfunction, is an age-related disorder of brain function causing multiple behaviour changes. In cats the behaviour changes include: Yowling excessively and inappropriately Urinating or defecating outside the litter box and around the house Disorientation and aimless wandering Restlessness Changes in interaction with people or other pets such as

Mischief ready for summer

2011-10-20T14:50:00.005+11:00

Mischief sheds his winter coat Nurse Tegan helped Mischief out of his winter coat and into his summer splendour this morning. Over winter he can't keep up with his long hair and it was matted on his sides and belly and up behind his ears. Mischief is usually pretty laid back and purry but he asked for a sedative so we could clean up those matts behind his ears without hurting him. He says

Worms in cats

2011-10-20T14:18:00.005+11:00

Tapeworms and roundworms are the most common intestinal parasites of cats. Tapeworms are long flat worms composed of many individual segments which look like grains of rice in the faeces. Round worms are much shorter and rounder and produce microscopic eggs. Hookworm and whipworm are rarer but cause anæmia, loss of protein and gastrointestinal upsets. Cats are infested with the flea tapeworm

Feline Leukaemia

2011-10-19T13:34:00.001+11:00

Feline leukaemia virus (FeLV) is an important viral infection of young cats in multi-cat households. Over the last few years infection has become less common. What diseases are associated with FeLV? FeLV infection suppresses the immune system making the cat susceptible to secondary infections and chronic diseases that would not affect a normal healthy cat. These include mouth ulceration,

Cat FIV and AIDS

2011-10-19T10:48:00.000+11:00

Freddy came in last week off his food and drooling a lot. When I looked in his mouth I found a red raw gums and mouth. No wonder he was so flat and uninterested in life. Many infectious agents contribute to sore mouths like Freddy's. Freddy tested positive to FIV (Feline Immunodeficiency Virus), which predisposes infected cats to mouth ulceration. His owners have 2 other cats and a baby

Time to say goodbye?

2011-10-13T17:02:00.000+11:00

Making a decision to say goodbye to a dearly loved pet and friend is never easy but at the end of life euthanasia can be the kindest and most humane way to go. Only you know when the time has come. This checklist might be helpful: • is your cat still interacting with you - lap time, dinner time - and with other people and pets in the family? • is any pain,

Ever brought a new kitten home???

2011-10-13T11:21:00.003+11:00

Hairballs?

2011-09-29T14:25:00.002+10:00

Hairballs are overrated as a problem in cats. A true hairball is hair wrapped in saliva and requires no treatment. Hairballs almost never cause illness in pet cats. On the other hand we should see your cat if she vomits frequently - whatever the vomitus is! If she is turning her nose up at her dinner or hiding then we should see her as soon as possible. Normal cats eat several times a day

Animal herbalist

2011-09-29T13:26:00.001+10:00

Cats who prefer herbal treatments or have chronic problems will be pleased to hear that animal herbalist Nicki Froescheis has moved to Canberra. Nicki has European postgraduate training in herbal treatment for pets. Nicki says that herbal treatment is useful for chronic diseases such as arthritis, bladder inflammation, palliative treatment for cancers, immune disorders, dementia and skin

Douse that fire! - Burning mouth in Burmese

2011-09-22T14:43:00.000+10:00

Bonno, a big Burmese boy, burst into the surgery this morning shaking blood all over his carrier. He had pawed and scratched at his tongue so much that he had cut it. His frantic carer told us that this was not the first time she’d seen him licking, chewing and rubbing at his face, but it was the first time he’d drawn blood. We had a close look at his mouth after we’d sedated him and found that

Kitties on speed - hyperthyroidism

2011-09-16T13:09:00.005+10:00

Hyperthyroidism is a common disorder of older cats. Owners complain that their cats have gone crazy climbing curtains and rooting in rubbish bins. An overactive thyroid gland produces and secretes too much thyroid hormone putting pressure on all body organs. Any sex or breed of cat can be affected. What are the signs of hyperthyroidism? Any of the following: 1. Weight loss 2

Cats, kidneys and drinking

2011-09-01T14:34:00.005+10:00

Oscar Cats with kidney disease all need more fluids. If your cat has kidney problems or is just getting on a bit you should encourage more water consumption. Provide a choice of water bowls: many cats favour metal or porcelain bowls while others prefer plastic bowls filled to the brim. Put one in the laundry and another on the porch. Fill some from the kitchen tap and others from the laundry

A bit of feline history

2011-08-26T14:41:00.001+10:00

I was fascinated to learn why cats are much more sensitive than other species to drugs like panadeine and aspirin. Cats lack the liver enzyme that metabolises these drugs. They have a defect in the gene coding for this enzyme. A recent paper explained when this genetic variation occurred in evolutionary history. Researchers concluded that it occurred when Felidae split from others in the suborder

Just add water!

2011-08-11T13:19:00.006+10:00

Tiny shows off his slimming self Recent studies have shown that adding water to cats' food slows weight gain and increases activity. Cats that consumed a dry diet with approximately 50 percent water moisture gained weight at a slower pace and were more physically active than cats on a dry diet with 10 percent moisture. Maintaining the new slimmer profile after a successful weight loss diet is

Mojo

2011-07-29T12:15:00.001+10:00

Mojo is very popular with us all at Hall Vet Surgery, and of course much loved by his family. Two weeks ago he disappeared for a night and when he came home couldn't get interested in his food – very unusual for MoJo and most distressing for all his fans! When we saw him we found a few scabs on his head, presumed he’d been in a brawl and sent him home with antibiotics. Although we noticed

Herpesvirus for cats

2011-07-15T16:03:00.002+10:00

Yes - cats have their own herpesvirus, just as irritating as the human variety, and liable to flare up with stress just like it does in human sufferers. However cat herpesvirus mostly affects the eyes and respiratory system. The great majority of cats suffer their first bout with herpesvirus when they are kittens. They get watery eyes, sneeze, snuffle, go off their food for a day or two and look

Momo's war wound

2011-07-15T08:15:00.012+10:00

Momo's had a bad week. His mum found him shivering under a bush on Thursday morning. When she coaxed him inside he didn't feel much like breakfast and curled up in front of the fire. He'd eaten dinner on Tuesday and gone out for a stroll around his domain feeling as fit as a fiddle. By the time his mum found him he had a fever and was very miserable. When she took him on her lap for a cuddle

Nick boxed-in I've just come across a fantastic site called Litterbox Guru written by an American vet. If your cat is missing or even avoiding the box or has started urine marking the walls this is an excellent place to start working out the cause. Comb through my previous posts for more suggestions. When you've thought about possible causes for this unsociable behaviour come and see us to

Pet insurance

2011-05-30T19:50:00.001+10:00

Should we take out pet insurance for our cats? Medical or accident emergencies are hard to predict and the cost of the best treatment can challenge many budgets. If insurance is taken out while your pet is young then you can cover most eventualities. Sally’s story is typical of many we see every week. Names and faces have been changed to protect the not so innocent! Sally lives with her retired

Keep your eye on this blog and in our winter newsletter coming out soon.

This is charley

2011-04-28T08:41:00.003+10:00

What a cat! Charley enjoys life and is not inhibited about getting around. His condition will not deteriorate, in fact as he grows older he may adapt to his brain malfunction even more successfully.

Tooth decay

2011-04-27T16:59:00.001+10:00

Many cats suffer holes in the teeth where the teeth meet the gums. These neck lesions, or FORLS, are intensely painful. Cats with bad mouths show less interest in food. Some approach the food bowl eagerly but then pain overcomes hunger and they leave most of the food. They chew cautiously, drop food from the mouth, or swallow with difficulty. Dribbling, blood-tinged saliva, and bad breath are

Cat labour

Things are pretty hectic up at my sister's farm at the moment - even Nick was flat out on the tractor when I arrived on Easter Day.

Sadie's bad day

2011-04-20T14:56:00.007+10:00

Sadie is not having a good day - last night she found some tasty capsules on her human's bedside table. No sooner had she licked up the yummy powder she found inside them than her humans whisked her off to the Emergency Centre at Fyshwick. Despite her protests the doctor hooked her up to a drip and started her on tablets to counteract the drugs. DRUGS???? Sadie's eyes widened - no wonder her

Dog flea products toxic to cats

2011-04-08T17:38:00.001+10:00

Flea products containing permethrin are highly toxic to cats. Products for dogs such as Advantix spot on for fleas and ticks and Permoxin, a spray, contain permethrin. Do NOT ever apply them to cats. Cats which groom or sleep with dogs treated with these products in the previous 48 hours can be poisoned also. Signs of toxicity include: tremors, twitching, drooling, incoordination, convulsions

Visiting the vet?

2011-04-06T16:25:00.002+10:00

Veterinary visits don't have to be stressful for you or your cat. Happy visits to the vet start well before the big day. Ideally we should acclimatise our cats to carriers and cars while they are still kittens. How can we minimise these stresses here and now though? 1. Ask reception to book you at a quiet time or when no dogs are around if possible 2. Socialise cats to the carrier and car: •

Bored Cat Syndrome

2011-03-25T15:50:00.001+11:00

Yes there is such a thing!! Keeping cats indoors increases their life spans because they don’t become victims of cars, other animals, diseases or thievery. Unfortunately many cats are left alone without stimulation or a feline friend while their human companions are at work and school. Some of these cats develop behavior problems or stress illnesses while others become dangerously obese from

Help! My cat is urinating indoors

2011-03-23T12:28:00.002+11:00

Marking or toileting? Spraying small amounts of urine against vertical objects such as chairs or walls is a territorial marking behaviour. Male and female cats urinate in a squatting position leaving a greater volume of liquid. Why do cats spray? • Entire male cats are the most likely to spray • Medical problems such as cystitis, diabetes, kidney disease and obesity exacerbate abnormal

Cat in Deep Repose

2011-02-21T08:36:00.000+11:00

Tabbitha in deep sleep I swear my sister's cat, Tabitha, was sound asleep when I snapped this on the weekend. She didn't twitch a muscle when the camera flashed and clicked - and we laughed and laughed. Have you snapped your cat in strange sleeping poses? We'd love to see just how uncomfortable a position a cat can sleep in!!! Send your pics to hallcatvet.

Urine problems

2011-02-18T15:05:00.000+11:00

Indoor cats straining to urinate and not producing much but bloody urine have bladder problems. Some exhibit their frustration and pain all over the house. The urinary passage of male or desexed male cats can block up with crystals and mucous. If your cat is tense and restless then he may have a blockage and you must contact a vet immediately before the bladder bursts. Stress causes bladder

Choosing the right cat for you

2011-02-09T17:07:00.001+11:00

Choose a cat to suit your lifestyle. Where will your cat live? If your cat will be kept entirely or mostly indoors, select a breed or an individual that’s calm and not very active. How much time do you want to spend grooming your cat? Cat have short or curly coats, or are long-haired. Long or densely haired cats shed more hair into your home and need more grooming than short-haired breeds. We

Cat fight wounds

2011-01-31T14:46:00.008+11:00

Bites from another cat during a fight cause abscesses and infection. Dog, rat and other rodent bites are rare. Consequences: Cat bites on the head, forelimbs or at the base of the tail leave lumps that swell and burst. Your cat is lethargic and goes off his food. When a cat bites its teeth go through the skin leaving small puncture wounds which seal over, trapping bacteria under the skin of

Flea control

2011-01-31T14:10:00.053+11:00

Cat flea in action Because of the all the rain over the last 6 months and now the very warm days, fleas are hatching in unprecedented numbers around Canberra. Cat fleas hatch from flea pupae in your house in warm, humid conditions. Our carpeted, centrally heated homes are ideal for the year round development of fleas. After feeding on a cat adult female fleas lay eggs that fall off onto

How old is my cat?

2011-01-10T18:06:00.000+11:00

The old way of comparing a cat's age with a person's was to multiply by seven. Here is a more accurate way that correlates better with the various life stages and growth rate of the cat:The first year of a cat's life is equivalent to 15 human years. By 2 years old a cat is the equivalent of a 24 year old person. After that each year for a cat is the same as four human years. For example a 10

Cat vaccination recommendations

2010-12-17T13:33:00.001+11:00

Vaccination recommendations are in a state of flux at the moment. However, kittens must have their first check up and vaccination at 8 weeks of age. Boosters at 12 and 16 weeks protect against enteritis and cat flu for 12 months. Feline Enteritis causes vomiting and diarrhoea and is usually fatal. Cat flu caused by Feline Rhinotracheitis Virus and/or Feline Calicivirus is not often fatal. Early

how do cats lap??

2010-12-04T12:44:00.000+11:00

Some interesting research has just revealed what we already know - that cats are very mysterious and unique creatures! The mechanism they use to lap water into their mouths is quite different from that of dogs or other animals. This story comes from Scientific American online. One morning scientist Roman Stocker was watching his cat Cutta Cutta drink, and began to wonder about the mechanism by

Christmas holidays

2010-11-03T16:52:00.000+11:00

Going away this Christmas? Make sure your cat's vaccinations are up to date now. Most good boarding catteries insist that cats are immunised against herpesvirus, calicivirus and enteritis, also known as panleukopenia. We get very busy in December and vaccination slots are difficult to find so book in for November instead.

Snake season

2010-10-13T10:17:00.000+11:00

The snakes are up and about. A few days of warm weather and they shake off their winter blues and start prowling the Bush Capital again. Binka met one on her rounds on Monday and lost the fight. She is paralysed and in hospital on a drip and regular purrrrrrrrrr therapy until she can eat and walk again. Binka meows a greeting and rests again Binka on a drip and a well padded bed

Our New Zealand nurse has unexpectedly had to return home to look after her dying dog and we are looking for a trained veterinary nurse to start as soon as possible. We expect a motivated, flexible self-starter ready and able to perform all nurse duties - helping in consultations, weight management consultations, kennel cleaning, pharmacy, surgical and hospital nursing, and occasional reception.
